If Lampard leaves a championship club again without finishing the job because of the lure of a former club in the premier league then I hope no other champ club touches him again after he invariably fails at West Ham.
Ambition is one thing but no one likes to be a stepping stone! I still thing one (of many) reasons Gerrard failed at Villa was the whole notion of "oh he'll just be here for a season or two before heading to the Liverpool job".
Would be a better choice.
Lots of commentators on the Athletic last night and this morning begging Ratcliffe to sack Amorim and get Nuno in!
how the mighty have fallen!
Re Nuno I’m not surprised, but I am surprised that they waited so long to pull the trigger, especially it seemed weird to let Nuno pick the Europa League squad first and not include Hutchinson. Much as I think Marinakis is a terrible egotist I can’t help wondering if Nuno was angling for the sack, and whether Hutchinson was the final straw. This has obviously been building for a while though. Maybe Edu was the spark but I’m sure Marinkis rushing onto the pitch laid the fuse.
Given the three names currently mentioned are Postecoglou, Mourinho and Rodgers you have to wonder if Forest are going to implode this season! Obviously you can argue all have premier league experience and have won trophies, but Jose vs Marinakis would probably be worthy of a Netflix documentary! Postecoglou would possibly be the worst choice, if only because so much of Forest's success last season was built on defensive solidity.
You do wonder if Marinakis is just going "Bring me the man who won the Europa League last season!" which will probably work as well as Leicester hiring van Nistelrooy on the basis of two good games against them!
